AW: AW: libxml2.dll, libxslt.dll, problems with executables linke d to dll's

[Ralf Habacker]

Hallo Gerrit,

In der cygwin-Malingliste erzähltest Du etwas über libxml2. Hast Du vor den Port
zu publizieren bzw. als Maintainer zu übernehmen ? Ich frage, weil ich für KDE2
ich diese lib benötige.

Vor ein paar Wochen sprachen wir über eine Resolverbibliothek  für cygwin. In
der Zwischenzeit habe ich noch eine andere  bei gnu.org gefunden.
http://www.gnu.org/software/adns/adns.html.

Vielleicht interessiert Dich das :-)

Gruß

Ralf Habacker

Yes, but I need them shared:(
I get stackdumps e.g. for $ xsltproc -V and that is bad.

Mine is build from unpatched 1.4.2 source, builds OOTB passes
all tests, this version uses dlltool et al to build dll's in the
old style, but it still works (sometimes).

It should be no difference if you pick mine or build it yourself.
The patched version may be a little bit easier to handle because
some incompatibilities between the autotools which were adressed there.

Robert Collins' version is hacked to use the auto-import capabilities of 
newer binutils.  No __declspec(dll[im? ex?]port) worries.

But it's a fork from the official version.  Eventually this will get folded 
back into the "real" libtool.

Dunno.

Probably.

We're waiting for:

1) the new setup (check!)
2) the end of the no-new-packages moratorium (check!)
3) the autoconf 2.13/2.52 automake 1.4p5/1.5 harmonization
    3a) -src packaging standard...see cgywin-apps@ over the last week
4) Gary Vaughan (GNU libtool maintainer) to fold Robert's changes into the 
"real" libtool

#4 is going to take some time, because Gary's got a new book coming out so 
time is at a premium.  Therefore, there's little hurry for #3, but we're 
a-workin' on it.

[Peter Ring]

libxml2/libxslt builds out of the box for me. 
I build from cvs sources.
I have not tried building with shared libraries.

You need recent autoconf/automake/libtool though. 

Canonical site
  http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/

There's a number of libtool ports available:

Gerrit P. Haase
  http://timtowtdi.topcities.com/cygwin/libtool/
Ryan T. Sammartino
 
ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/pc/gnuwin32/cygwin/porters/Sammartino_T_Ryan/
Robert Collins
 
http://www.neuro.gatech.edu/users/cwilson/cygutils/robert-collins/contrib/li
btool/

Are there any advantages to any of these?
Are there any advantages to building libtool from the 1.4.2 source?
Will libtool become part of the standard distribution?
Are we waiting for autoconf/automake/libtool to become a bit more
stable?

Kind regards
Peter Ring

Sorry to reply twice, but I wondered why I never heard of this site, now I
know,
there you get win32 binaries, I built them as 'native' Cygwin versions.
That is a great difference!
Cygwin != Windows

If I want to have them for Windows, I would be able to run my MSVC and build
it,
the Windows builds are supported by xmlsoft, there are project files
included in
the source dist, Cygwin is not supported...

Don't mix up the platforms, that is *bad*.

In this world there are curious things. I send a mail to Gerrit privatly in
german and ...ups found it in the cygwin mailing list. ???

BTW: You have had the chance to get a free lesson in speaking german except the
umlauts :-)

"Umlauts" - what a word .... in german it is known as "Umlaute"

Ralf
